He has stated hundreds of times throughout SC2 he is only in it for the money, and thought the game was trash since its debut in comparison to BW. Now he is going to live the dream... get paid to sit at home and play video games. And now he doesnt even have to be competitive like he used to. Results and showings dont exist so he doesnt have to stress about how good he actually is. Nothing has changed for him, except now he gets paid to sit at home and play video games without having to stress at a competition about winning. Edit: It is pretty funny that he is now one of those "personalities" he used to talk so much shit on. | ||

What vital, new information do you gain from that sentence that you didn't have prior to reading it? It doesn't actually say anything. It's just a bunch of corporate buzzwords. | ||

Yeah I think it was talked about on SotG or ITG that basically it lets the personality do his own thing without worrying about scarmbling around for gigs and sponsorships. Much easier letting someone else do all the legwork setting up the deals and then just signing them. | ||

"Management agreement for worldwide management" Explain to me what the difference between "management agreement" and "agreement" is Does the sponsor or the player have the capability to conduct "worldwide management" to begin with beyond the Internet? "Marketing representation across all major platforms..." = "Idra promotes us over the Internet" "including sponsorship and licensing" = "We pay him in order to make money off of him" A lot of empty buzzwords just to say "agreement for eMG to sponsor Idra who'll then promote eMG". Once you've read enough press releases, promotions, and marketing, you'll start to notice the difference between solid and mature statements to empty amateurish statements like this one. It's just a way for a small group that no one's every heard of to sound big and important to people who have no clue; also to attract more sponsors who have no clue either. | ||
